MPS® 203 I4.0Introduction to Industry 4.0 for mechatronics technicians
Despite increasing product
complexity and a growing
demand for more customized
products, product life-cycles
are diminishing. This poses
major challenges for manufac-
turing worldwide, as current
production systems are
stretched to their limits.
There is now a growing need for
new technologies and concepts
that will transform industry.
This technological and cultural
transformation is known as
Industry 4.0, or I4.0. A major
I4.0 breakthrough is the ability
to produce customized prod-
ucts in batch sizes of 1 by using
highly flexible, RFID-based pro-
duction plants.
MPS 203 I4.0 is a comprehen-
sive learning and research envi-
ronment covering a range of
topics, from the fundamentals
of automation technology to
modern production facilities
that flexibly manufacture single
workpieces.

Highlights
MPS 203 I4.0 not only conveys the fundamentals of automation tech-nology, but also provides a simple and logical introduction to the essential uses and principles of Industry 4.0, especially for mecha-tronics technicians.
By covering topics including MES, augmented reality, RFID, and digi-tal product memory, our MPS 203 I4.0 is an ideal learning system for anyone interested in a future- oriented training course with a solid foundation in basic, practical skills.
The modular design of the MPS enables a comprehensive, step-by-step learning approach and con-veys complex topics using clear and straightforward learning units.
• Communication of cus-
tomer-specific manufac-
turing processes through
digital product memory
• Comprehensive introduc-
tion to RFID technology
and service-oriented
architectures (SOA)
• Straightforward introduc-
tion to Manufacturing Exe-
cution Systems (MES)
• Intuitive, web-based user
interfaces
• Learning supported by AR
and QR technologies

Practical learning system – for the production of customized goods
Digital product memory and service-oriented architectures
MPS 203 I4.0 teaches the fun-
damentals of RFID technology
in the production environment.
Alongside reading, changing,
and writing RFID tags, students
also learn how to connect RFID
gateways and read/write
devices to a networked produc-
tion plant. In addition, the
problems and hurdles of this
technology are explained using
practical examples with pro-
vided solutions.
Students gain sound knowl-
edge about the structure of dig-
ital product memories and the
connection to flexible plants,
enabling them to develop and
implement RFID concepts them-
selves for real production
plants further down the line.
In addition to a practical intro-
duction to MES, students’
understanding of the planning,
set-up, operation, and mainte-
nance of complex mechatronic
systems is also enhanced.
Comprehensive learning sup-port through a wide range of media
In addition to in-depth training
documentation, MPS comes
with various digital learning
aids.
Using the Festo Didactic QR
app, students can scan QR
codes to access the MPS infor-
mation portal containing
detailed information about the
component in question. Stu-
dents can find technical manu-
als here, as well as 3D models,
circuit diagrams, pin allocation
diagrams, and commissioning
instructions.
The Festo Didactic AR app
directly supports learning on a
mobile device by dynamically
displaying useful information
for the students as part of the
illustration of the plant.
There are also numerous
courses available for MPS via
the interactive learning tool
Tec2Screen®. This allows stu-
dents to learn about compo-
nents quickly and intuitively, as
well as commission them.
A safe investment thanks to flexible expansion
The MPS 203 I4.0 learning sys-
tem is – like MPS in general –
highly modular, and therefore
offers maximum flexibility when
integrating new and existing
solutions from the MPS envi-
ronment.
With concepts and technologies
like RFID and MES, MPS 203
I4.0 lays the foundation for
Industry 4.0 production learn-
ing environments. This makes it
easy, even at a later stage, to
combine other MPS stations
with these technologies, and
integrate them into the MPS
203 I4.0 plant and the corre-
sponding MES system.
The modular design and stan-
dardized interfaces, also make
it feasible to expand into more
complex solutions in fields such
as mobile robotics.
MPS 203 I4.0, therefore, rep-
resents a future-proof founda-
tion for up-to-date training in
mechatronics and automation
technology.
